As we enter into a new fiscal year, I wanted to inform our citizens of three (3) major actions by the Town Commissioners of Pittsville that have occurred!
1) The Town’s Municipal Operating Budget for FY 27, beginning on 1 Jul 26 and ending on 30 Jun 27 has been adopted with a real estate property tax rate of $.32 per $100 of assessed value. Last year’s rate was $.30 per $100 of assessed value. The FY 27 budget will be posted on the Town’s web site AND copies are available at the Town Hall.
2) The Town Manager/Circuit Rider grant that assists in funding the Town Manager’s position has been successfully submitted to the State requesting $60,000.00. This is a one (1) year grant that the Town applies for every year!
3) A Community Development Block Grant/CDBG application in the amount of $800,000 has been successfully submitted for consideration to undertake a major storm water management project to help alleviate flooding issues in the most affected areas of the Town.
On the above grants, the Town Manager will keep everyone informed and up to date on our progress! Anyone having questions or desiring more information on the above is encouraged to contact the Town Manager at 410-835-8872.
